Got the Dark Smoke tint and couldn't be happier. I love seeing motorcycle helmets where you cant see the person's eyes and that's exactly what this shield does with my helmet. It gives me great protection from the sun and sometimes I even let the inner visor down to have even more protection. I have NOT used it at night so I can't say if it's too dark or not but I assume it will be and when I do ride at night I will be sure to use the clear one.

Yes, I recommend this product.

I bought these gloves in the black/green colorway and they go perfectly with my green/black Kawasaki ZX6R. My only issue is the longterm durability of the gloves. I've only worn them a handful of times and the threading is starting to come loose on more than one part of each glove. At this rate I'll need new gloves in 6 months. The gloves seem to have good protection but I haven't been down yet to confirm. If you get the gloves you won't regret it...it's worth the money but could have better quality.

I bought this helmet in black (gloss) in a size Large because the medium was too tight. However now that it has been broken in I think I should've went with the Medium. Either way I still love the helmet. I got the dark smoke face shield and it looks so cool when I'm wearing it. I was trying to decide between this one and the Bell Vortex but chose this one because of the inner visor that drops down if the sun is too bright. Love the helmet but my only complaint would be that it gets pretty load on the freeway once you hit 100 but then again I shouldn't be driving that fast, should I? LOL!
